Method for controlling e.g. airship, involves determining wind force acting on aircraft in direction transverse to longitudinal axis aircraft, where aircraft is rotated around vertical axis with wind force acting in transverse direction

摘要

The method involves moving an aircraft (1) by drives (12, 25, 26) along a target flight path above ground, where the aircraft is rotatable around a vertical axis (16). The aircraft is provided with a mechanism for determining wind force acting on the aircraft in a direction transverse to a longitudinal axis (14) of the aircraft. The aircraft is rotated around the vertical axis with the wind force acting in the transverse direction. A longitudinal thrust and a transverse thrust are produced by the drives.
